cardboard runway

[Ranger_107]

I just made a prototype foldable runway out of card board. maybe once i test it i will paint it, put lights, taxiway etc.
I live about 100 yards away from a small park so I just go out to hop the plane up. its about 300 feet but 100 wide so I cant pull off a 180 degree turn and when I land my wheels would get stuck in the grass so trying this out as an alternative. I am going to test it pretty soon (today) and will send a video and pics.
might put the gopro on the plane to get some shots. I would love to see other people try this.

kids down the road from me use a couple rolls of water proofing tar paper, to cover the level but rough gravel driveway, I thought that was clever
